Here, There, and Everywhere!

The LORD hasn’t lost his powerful strength; he can still hear and answer prayers.

Isaiah 59:1 (CEV)

Can God really be with a soldier in Iraq, a sailor in the China Seas, and a teacher in Colorado—all at the same time? Can he really hear kids' prayers in Korea, Georgia, and Italy?

Yes. Yes, he can.

Does he get tired and worn out? Or grumpy? Or sick of helping us?

Nope. Never.

Well then, can he hear me? Does he even care?

Yes! He can hear you, and he cares so very much! He loves you more than you could ever imagine. God hears every prayer you pray. He loves to hear from you! And he loves the people you care about. He will be with them wherever they are, whether at home or far away.

So you can trust him. No amount of worrying or fear… praying or not praying… or being good or not changes how much God can do. Nothing is too difficult for God. So pray to him today, knowing he is powerful and can help you in all things!
